It is just a matter to taste. For me 5e has been great, but at the same time Dragon AGE was a fantastic ruleset that was probably my wife's favorite gaming system ever. What she (and the rest of my gaming group) did not like was the Dark setting of Dragon Age. At the time (and still pretty much...

4 out of 5 rating for Fantasy AGE Core Rulebook Solid rule system, a refinement of the original Dragon AGE RPG.Artwork is good overall, with a few standout pieces good and bad.Numerous typos that should have been fixed, feels like it needed one more pass by an editor before shipping.The only...

The contents are good. It appears to be a solid generic continuation of the AGE engine. The main problems I have seen to far are typos and typographical problems (inconsistent use of Bold text). My biggest problem so far is there is no easy way to mimic a D&D Cleric. I was hoping to change my...

In a podcast (http://www.vigilancepress.com/uncategorized/chris-pramas-talks-titansgrave-and-fantasy-age-on-the-latest-episode-of-the-vigilance-press-podcast/ ) Chris says that they will do the pre-order the hardback get a cheap pdf early for the Fantasy Age book, but most likely not for the...

I hope to find time to do this.

It is pretty expensive, but I am glad the option is there.

I did not know that. That MIGHT work out I will bring my laptop to my gaming group that I am a player in and see if I can get a convert. One thing is we might switch over to play star wars, in that group. I have not listened to the Sci Fi pack.. you think it would be helpful?

I love the idea behind it. But the price per DLC looks high, as well as the price per month option. It costs a little less than Netflix (for the pathfinder only subscription), but I only game once MAYBE 2 times a month (or zero lately), making it a hard choice. Perhaps just building up...

I agree it was fantastic. Great diverse use of rules.

Actually this does not look hex-based in the traditional sense. The terms hex-based or square-based implies that each hex or square represents a single unit of movement. For instance 5 foot squares or hexes. This terrain system is infact gridless, note the absence of sub grids. They will work...

That is a great list.. though weather tables would be cool (Perhaps Something happens is a more generic way of handling random variables. Was there s Something Happens table in the DMG.

If they get the OGL out there it can't fail. If they don't it will still do OK, but considering that they have mentioned they will be releasing less material than ever before, I suspect they plan on having the OGL intact to ensure interest in the core books.

The role of the DM is to create situations where the players can shine. Giving a PC a chance to use the feat they spent limited resources on is a good way of doing that. So it is a better game for players to tell you that their feat is helping them out, not a worse one. The worst thing a DM can...

1) Rumor was that they got cut and will be in a future web article. 2) Missing, I suggest you make them up, or based on the object rules. Which means you can give smaller sections hit points or just don't keep track of HP at all and estimate how long the walls can stand up vs siege engines...

My thoughts too werecorpse. Damn, this is temping but I am committed to D&D (5e) at the moment. If anyone had to guess which version is the most easily converted to 5e? I would assume (Pathfinder).

Expensive, but looks cool. The only doubt is the two plastic types. Hard and not good for painting (I hope this just means you need to primer it) or high detail and paintable, but fragile and prone to breaking.

IMHO this is the best case scenario. 1) They Kill the KS before it fails too bad 2) They rework it all to be iOS only campaign neutral note keeping system 3) Make it local storage (no cloud support to keep upkeep costs low) 4) Sell it for $2.99 5) Use the proceeds to Kick out an Android port...

Don't understand why you set the bar so high for yourselves. Why not start with a character generator for core classes and races and use kickstarter's stretch goal model to expand. Starting at $425k seems risky. Good luck. If 5E ever becomes a lock, I would be interested.

My take spend 1/2 move to pick it up, or... explain how you did a cool Hollywood style stunt to pick it up (Cartwheel over it and pick it up as you roll by, Kick it up like a skateboard trick) and roll for it Dexterity (Acrobatics) or Strength (Athletics) with a DC 10.

5 out of 5 rating for Marvel Heroic Roleplaying Basic Game This game's mechanics help immerse you and all at the table in the action. As each die you bring to the pool must be explained by the player in a way that shows how it is helping (or hindering) the action. We have found that this game...
